Bulgaria will import parts and consumables from Russia to ensure the safe operation of Kozloduy NPP. At its meeting held today, the caretaker cabinet approved a derogation from EU sanctions against Russia enabling the Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant to purchase the materials and spare parts necessary for its annual maintenance and operation, caretaker Minister of Energy Rosen Hristov said.
"This is critically important for the safety of the nuclear power plant. These are consumables, services and parts for which we have not yet found alternative suppliers. We are also overstocking on these materials and parts for which we are unable to find alternative supplies, so as to ensure the smooth operation of Kozloduy NPP for the years to come", Ministrer Hristov added.
